Fugvate Pracfugce

I do love a nice slim suit, so apart from the velvet jacket seeming a bit heavy, I think Kate Walsh looks pretty chic here.

Of course, when I say “here,” I mean, “in this photo, from this angle.” Because like so many things — Top Chef challenges, any episode of Murder, She Wrote, Marilyn Manson — this outfit is not what it might first seem.

Business in the front; Fifth Element in the back. She actually looks a bit like she just came from an art-studio catfight with her husband’s first wife, but forgot to make sure nothing got damaged by the deranged bitch’s neon claws. Oh well: As the eyes are the window to the soul, so is Kate’s flapping jacket hole a window to the spine.  Which is great for an impromptu scoliosis check, and for ventilation when all that heavy velvet starts to make a girl’s sweat glands weep, but as pickup lines go it’s way inferior.
